- Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.
You are not to judge a book by the cover.
Never too late to mend.
The mill cannot grind with the water that is passed.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Many things grow in the garden that were never sown there.
Of small account is a fly till it gets into the eye.
A wrinkled purse a wrinkled face.
You will never miss the water till the well runs dry.
He who laughs least laughs best.
Laugh and the world laughs with you, weel and you weep alone.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
The early bird catches the worm.
Time and tide waits for no man.
All's well that ends well.
